What is AI?

Hi Aiden K., Please stand by as I search the Mixpanel knowledge base for an AI-powered answer. I normally take about 15 seconds or so. In case AI cannot answer your question, feel free to reach out to Mixpanel support at mixpanel.com/get-support.

Based on the knowledge sources provided, I can offer some insights into how AI is defined in the context of Mixpanel and product development:

AI, or artificial intelligence, is characterized by its ability to learn and adapt. According to the information from Mixpanel's blog, AI is defined by its capacity to:

1. Take in information 2. Have a goal 3. Accomplish that goal 4. Learn and adapt

An important aspect of AI is its ability to learn, even if it's not continuously training on new foundational data. Modern AI models can adapt to new contexts through user prompts, which can lead to unpredictable changes in behavior during conversations Can AI replace builders?.

AI is also described as a system that can:

1. Convert previous context in a complicated way 2. Take input 3. Output something reasonable

The blog post suggests that AI's behavior can be considered a form of "thinking," as it processes information and produces outputs in a way that resembles human reasoning Can AI replace builders?.

It's worth noting that while AI has made significant advancements, it still has limitations. For instance, current AI systems are not capable of "dreaming outside of what it already knows" and typically interpolate between things they've already seen, rather than creating entirely new concepts Sprig's Kevin Mandich on building with ML and AI.
